most likely that it is a old drain pipe as some plumbers used copper for that purpose. if it is a drain all u have to do is cap it. if it turns out to be a vent pipe u can install a end of the line vent cap. I cant remember what it is called but your supply store will know. just tell them u want to install a vent under the sink not through the roof.

well I had a plumber connect a new hose it cost me $ 85 but it was properly install, since we added a splitter Home depot recommended but it can't take the pressure and the hose connector will leek. or if you are handy connect a splitter and a new valve

Its normal to have the water supply from under sink to dishwasher 3/8 soft copper. If there is a water stop under sink for dishwasher go ahead and shut it off. If not you will have to shut water off at main. Now you can unscrew supply at dishwasher, it's close to the front on left side. Its a 3/8 compression nut, you can use a small cresent wrench.

Check the hose first - it could be split or damaged esprcially if it's old. Check all the clamps to be sure they are tight. Chack all connections to the dishwasher and drain spur under the sink. Check the drain trap fro any leaks.

You can use one the putty type of epoxy repairs. They are very easy to use. Just make sure you have everything extremely clean where the putty will touch. Cut off as much as you think you will need and knead it to a uniform color. Don't mess with it too long though, it will start to harden in 3 - 4 minutes. Once it starts to harden, you're done working with it. It sets up real fast.

I suggest just putting a dedicated Drain in the island next to the Dishwasher. You can hide it in side the island. Under the house, tee into the Main Sewage drain. You should not need to vent it as the sinks vent is near enough to keep you from worrying about that.
